Answer:

The main difference is cell plate formation and how they form the daughter cells during cytokinesis. In plants, they lack centrosomes. A new cell plate will form between the daughter cells for the future cell wall. In animal cells the cell membrane will rather constrict to separates the parent cell into the daughter cells. Plants also do not undergo cell furrowing, unlike animals cells.
